Holiday-party dressing is made easier when one versatile piece can do the work for you, and that’s what we’re loving about velvet for the holidays. The best part is that the hottest velvet dresses, sets, and jumpsuits for holiday fashion are under $100 with some already on early Black Friday deals.
- Best bow detail: Abigail Burgundy Velvet Bow Mini Dress $75
- Gown for black-tie: Ramonda Black Velvet Burnout Sleeveless Maxi Dress $99
- Best party-ready layer: Elisha Burgundy and Red Velvet Midi Dress $88
Think seasonal, festive shades of burgundy and emerald green, in festive textures, like floral burnout and jacquard velvet, that feel ready for a formal invite, or a sultry slip dress you can wear over and over again.
These velvet dresses, jumpsuits and sets are all under $100, with options for office parties, black-tie plans and everything in between.
Best Velvet Mini Dresses for Holiday Parties
Both soft and warm, a versatile velvet dress can take you from the office party to a festive night out with just a change of shoes. Out top choice? The Abigail Burgundy Velvet Bow Mini Dress from Lulus is the ultimate party dress for just $75: its babydoll silhouette is comfortable but cute, while the ruched neckline and flared sleeves feel like fashion-forward details.
Be the holiday gift with more velvet bows in the season’s trending burgundy shade: the Posh Wine Red Velvet Bow Mini Dress is a sweet, sleeveless velvet frock featuring a comfortable shift silhouette with bows adorning the side seams. It’s a versatile, trend-proof piece with an extra celebratory touch, and it's under $60.
For warmth, opt for a long-sleeved option. The Make it Merry Wine Red Velvet Long Sleeve Button-Up Mini Dress pairs soft velvet and romantic details for a sultry yet easy-to-wear option—and it's marked down now.
Shine bright and make it a high-fashion ensemble with tonal pieces: style with fancy tights—preferably these $15 burgundy stockings covered in bows—and pointed-toe heels in the season’s trending burgundy shade for a dressed-up look that’s apt for a dinner date, holiday party, or any occasion you want to turn heads.
Our Favorite Velvet Maxi Dresses Under $100
For dressier occasions, such as office holiday parties or winter weddings, a gown or full-length option feels special.
For the cold seasons, burn-out velvet and dark floral patterns are romantic options fit for the vampy season. We’d pick the $99 Ramonda Black Velvet Burnout Maxi Dress, a sleeveless, maxi dress with a figure-skimming A-line silhouette. The high neckline has a keyhole opening at the back. Use polished layers, like a fur stole or floor-length coat, for formal dinners or company parties.
For a little more color, the $99 Marvel Burgundy Burnout Velvet Maxi Dress has that same burnout velvet texture in the season’s trending burgundy shade, with a square neckline, fitted sleeveless bodice and a floor-length column silhouette with a sultry slit hem. Accessorize with $45 metallic heels and a matching velvet clutch for a wedding or dressy holiday event.
How to Style Velvet Slip Dresses for Date Night
For a flirty take on holiday velvet, Lulus’ $88 Elisha Velvet Midi Dress brings festive jewel tones—ruby red and emerald green—to an easy fit-and-flare silhouette. Available in black seasonal shades, it’s a mid-length option with adjustable straps, seamed underwire cups and a flowy skirt that’s perfect for the dance floor. Wear it to a holiday party or dressy dinner with $39 metallic heels and dazzling $16 drop earrings; layer with a cropped fur jacket when it’s chilly.
The Best Velvet Jumpsuits for Holiday Fashion
We love a one-and-done outfit, especially one that offers warmth and coverage during winter. This on-sale Extraordinary Vibe Burgundy Velvet One-Shoulder Jumpsuit brings the drama with a flattering silhouette: featuring a ruched bodice, asymmetrical long sleeve detail and sash belt tied at the waist for shape. Plus, the plush stretch-velvet and relaxed fit is party-ready; just add statement earrings and heeled mules for a holiday soirée, and use code DEALS20 to save.
For a textured velvet option, the $89 Micola Red Velvet Jacquard Mock Neck Jumpsuit features a floral burnout velvet pattern with a high neckline, wide legs and a blousy sleeveless bodice. With a faux-fur coat and festive heels, it’ll earn plenty of compliments.
